TSH Stairwell
The Stairwell in TSH, while not made for music to be played in, created a wonderfully loud distinct sound. The 4 plus stories of metal bars and concrete walls produced an echo as the sound bounced off of them, unable to be absorbed into the hard material due to the lack of porous absorbers. The recording itself sounded like an amateur one, which is not bad because it gives the listener a feeling or realness, not faked or synthesized. The sound the acoustic guitar made was one where all the notes were separate, the vibration on the strings making each note distinct. The higher pitched frequencies did not reverbate as much as the lower pitched frequencies because of the length of the sound waves. However each sound reverberated off of the walls, surrounding the listeners, drawing them in to the familiar melody played on the guitar.
L.R.WILSON Practice Room
As the music in the practice room began, one could immediately hear the difference between there and the Stairwell. The sound was muted, which one could imagine a recording studio room sounded like. Once the door was closed, now sound would come in, or go out. However in the L.R.WILSON Practice rooms, sound does leak out. Now, because the room was smaller and more clossed off than the stairwell, the room did not have that echo or reverb. The amount of porous absorbers in the room was the reason for such a muted sound. The carpet on the floor, and some of the wall, absorbed most of the sound and the walls made of drywall, did the rest. The melody, instead of sounding short with the reverb, sounded smooth and lyrical. One would not be able to tell where one note ended and the other began. It sounded very professional, even without the background music and sound adjustments most professionals use.
L.R.WILSON Hallway
The Hall, sounded a lot like the way it did in the TSH Stairwell. With a lot of reverb, however not as much as it did in the Stairwell, due to the amount of porous absorbers. The hall was long, tall and wide. More so than the Stairwell, which allowed for the sound to carry through the hall. However, it was almost drowned out by the sound of people talking. The hall was made up of stone tiled floor and walls made of drywall, along with glass windows and doors and concrete pillars. The only porous absorber would be the walls which is why it sounded so much like the Stairwell. The high pitches on the guitar sounded short and sweet while the lower pitches rang out for a longer period of time(which isn't that long). Due to our choice in melody, the hall sounded like the mall at Christmas time with live performances playing the classics.
